I gotta say the pontoon boats look very cool. I see them on tv and think gotta get one. As much time as I spend on the water, I would think the pontoons are better suited to less windy spots like inland lakes more than windy bays though. Also, again, just guessing, but I was wathing two guys fish this weekend on ESPN (the outdoor shows are a weekend ritual for yours truly) and it looked as though it would be a bit tougher to get very far. Did look like fun though.
